In episode 6, we talk to co-founders Tracey Suggs and Foster Wilkins from Protect Your Skull, to discuss brain injury in sports. After their past experiences playing and coaching football, they are now on a mission to make all sports safer for athletes by bringing about concussion awareness. In this podcast, you'll learn about their story, the mission of Protect Your Skull, and the reason for its motto, "Quality of Life Matters Most".

Protect Your Skull is a performance and lifestyle brand that is focused on promoting concussion awareness and safety in all sports to the next generation of athletes. Tracey Suggs played football as a defensive back for Fayetteville State University of the CIAA Conference. It was then that he realized there was void and knew there needed to be a brand that was committed to promoting concussion awareness and safety in all sports. Today, he and Foster Wilkins work together to spread their message to universities, youth sports camps, sports leagues, and organizations around the country.
